Where Seasons Meet follows their journey as they learn that even symbols of joy can tremble, even icons can fear the unknown, and even the brightest lights can flicker. When a letter arrives—simple in words but heavy in implication—it becomes the spark that forces them to confront not only their own anxieties, but the truth that they no longer have to carry their seasons alone.
